Index



“This exciting book brings philosophy of communication up to speed with cutting-edge debates in contemporary continental philosophy. Traditional questions of community, body, dialogue, and human contact receive here new and urgent meanings. Butchart’s work is an important contribution to the understanding of communication as an embodied and at the same time collectively shared existential concern.”

—Amit Pinchevski, author of By Way of Interruption: Levinas and the Ethics of Communication
